The color red has a spectrum from 620 to 750 nm = 6.2 × 10-5 to 7.5 × 10-5 m = 4,835,362,225,806 Hz to 3,997,232,773,333 Hz. Scroll down to related links and look at "Visible spectrum - Wikipedia".

Various ranges of wavelengths are considered to be 'indigo' according to different definitions. 455-460 nanometres might the average middle wavelength. The frequency of any electromagnetic radiation is the speed of light divided by the wavelength.

nanometre = 10-9 metres

299,792,458 m.s-1 / 455 x 10-9 m ~= 658885 x 109.sec-1

There's more about the colour indigo if you would like on its page on wikipedia.

1. Both red and blue light are part of the visible spectrum, this is the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to (can be detected by) the human eye. Red light has a wavelength of 620-750nm and a frequency of 400-484THz. Blue light has a wavelength of 450-495nm and a frequency of 606-668THz.

How do the wavelength and frequency of red light compare to the wavelength and frequency of blue light?

very nice answer.


Does blue light have travel at a different frequency than red light in the same medium?

Yes. Blue light has a shorter wavelength, and therefore a higher frequency, than red light.


Is the frequency of blue light higher or lower than violet light?

Indigo has a higher frequency..


If a red light has a longer wave length than a blue light which one has a greater frequency?

the blue light


In the light spectrum are red waves shorter than blue waves?

Red light waves are almost double the length of blue or violet light waves. Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency; red light has a higher frequency than blue light.


Between green light and red light which has a higher frequency?

Red light has a longer wavelength than blue light, (i.e. greater distance for one oscillation of red light compared to blue light) so there are less oscillations in the same period of time for red light, and thus red light has a lower frequency than blue light. More concisely: Wavelength = Wavespeed / Frequency , where wavespeed is constant So Frequency = Wavespeed / Wavelength Therefore as wavelength increases, frequency decreases. Make sense? Jack
